4. Papers Published in International Journals

The Islamic Economics Institute is keen on opening new channels of distinguished academic publishing. One of these channels is allocating a special issue of one of the international journals for research on Islamic financing. That can be a joint issue in cooperation with the IEI journal or a separate one. That new channel has contributed to spreading the Islamic financing principles among economics and financing experts and to opening doors to dialogue. That channel has also helped facilitate ways of publishing for the IEI researchers who can now have opportunities of publishing their papers in well-known academic journals.

Since 1434 H (2013), the IEI has managed to convince five academic journals to publish special issues on Islamic financing. Some IEI researchers (Dr. Walid Mansour and Prof. Munawar Iqbal) have cooperated with the editors of those five journals in handling those special issues.

Over the past two years, four special issues of different academic journals have been published on Islamic financing.
